A story's *setting* is the time and place of the story.
Examples of settings:
- A middle-class Cincinnati suburb (present-day)
- Paris during the French Revolution
- The magical land of Narnia
The details of your story's setting create a world where your character can move around and the conflict can unfold.
Everything your character sees and touches depends on the setting. Your character's house, the clothes she wears, the secret shortcut she takes through the woods, the rain sprinkling down on her -- all of this depends on the story's setting
